    No ants is no problem but snakes are a different story.

    So no bare feet!

    It's not looking good for me I'm afraid. Waiting on spare parts to complete the camper trailer repairs.

    I'll prolly only stay Monday night and Tuesday. We've put the house on the market and I really need to tidy up and move stuff into storage before the new year.

    Pat.
    Tea Lady and partner with son.
    Grumpy John.
    Maybe Ern.

    But one with a large shed... which he could bolt the old new shed onto the side of...
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    A couple of questions:

    - where's the damn house?

    - exactly how big is that shed?

    Mine is 25 by 9 and YOURS LOOKS BIGGER!!!!!

    I've had another look at the pics and feel slightly better, but not much. No A/C or heating and no colourbond. Thankyou for small mercies.

    Anyway, GJ, you better bring that Escoulen chuck and all the bits up with you. I know I'm short on some bits and pieces, so a comparison would be great. Especially while Jim C. is here!

    Happy to bring the Escoulen chuck and attachments with me Jeff .

    Did I mention that it's got 3 phase power connected, and very friendly neighbours .

    Any ideas on what we are actually gonna DO! I don't want a schedule or anything! Just an Idea!

    (I've got some miniature turning tool steel I wanted to put handles on. And maybe turn something with. Maybe with a bit of that well traveled Dead finish! )

    We could start another enormous burl bowl like last time. Make it a tradition to never actually finish them.

    3 phase? Good luck to you. And yes, the Esc. chuck and accessories will be very welcome.

    Tea Lady, as far as I know, the WWW (Wraight, Weird and Wonderful for those that don't know) will be turning a 'complex' box while here. So I guess a few of us will be watching intently.

    I also suspect the two production turners in and Jim C. will wander and keep us all on track and safe.

    For myself, I want to turn a mid-way simple / complicated box. I've got the book and the instructions and if I get into trouble, well.....

    A poor turning outcome for a student means only one thing - poor instruction from the master/s. (I got that one from Vic Wood and I really, really like it.)

    So, what about a few days on some boxes?

    I can spare some small pieces of ancient redgum & kanooka, plus mulga and gidgee and some queen ebony......
